What to Expect After Your Wilden Home Sells

The Road from Accepted Offer to Moving Day

Getting an accepted offer on your home in Wilden is a huge milestone — but it’s not the finish line. Between now and possession, there are several key steps that ensure your sale closes smoothly, on time, and without surprises.

I’m Braden Koop Personal Real Estate Corporation (PREC), REALTOR® with RE/MAX Kelowna, and I’ve guided countless Wilden homeowners through this exact process. Here’s what happens behind the scenes once your property goes under contract.

1. Subject Removal: Turning an Offer Into a Firm Sale

Most offers include “subjects” — conditions that protect the buyer while they finalize financing, inspections, or document review.

Typical subjects include:

• Financing approval

• Home inspection

• Insurance confirmation

• Lawyer or notary review

During this stage, my role is to track all timelines and maintain communication with the buyer’s agent so nothing slips through the cracks. Once all subjects are removed, your sale becomes firm — and that’s when we can celebrate with confidence.

2. Lawyer Coordination and Conveyancing

Once the sale is firm, your lawyer or notary will prepare transfer documents and coordinate with the buyer’s legal team.

I’ll send your lawyer everything they need, including:

• The accepted contract and any addendums

• Property disclosure statements

• Title and strata documents (if applicable)

You won’t need to track down paperwork or follow up — it’s handled for you.

Your lawyer will also confirm mortgage payout details, prepare statements of adjustments, and advise when to come in for signing (usually about a week before completion).

3. Preparing for Completion

Completion is when legal ownership officially transfers to the buyer, and sale proceeds are sent to your lawyer’s trust account.

Leading up to this date, we’ll confirm a few important details:

• Utility disconnections and transfers

• Property insurance adjustments

• Final cleaning and key handoff

• Any agreed-upon repairs or inclusions

I’ll provide a clear checklist so you know exactly what needs to be done — no last-minute chaos, no confusion.

4. Completion Day

On completion day, the buyer’s lawyer transfers the purchase funds to your lawyer. Once those funds are received and all conditions are satisfied, title officially transfers to the buyer.

You won’t usually receive the sale proceeds in your account that same day — it typically takes 1–2 business days for funds to clear. Your lawyer will confirm once the deposit hits your account.

5. Possession Day

Possession typically takes place the day after completion (unless otherwise negotiated).

On this day:

• I’ll conduct a final walkthrough with the buyer’s agent to confirm the property is in the agreed condition.

• I’ll ensure keys, remotes, and codes are properly transferred.

• I’ll check in with you to confirm move-out is complete and everything has gone smoothly.

Even after closing, I stay in touch to help with your next steps — whether that’s buying your next property, managing your proceeds, or connecting you with trusted local professionals.

6. After the Sale

My service doesn’t stop at the closing table.

Many of my clients reach out for:

• Home value updates for their new property

• Introductions to local trades or service providers

• Advice on investing or upgrading their next home

This ongoing relationship ensures you have a trusted professional in your corner long after the sale is complete.

Final Thoughts

Selling your Wilden home should feel structured, supported, and stress-free — not uncertain or rushed. That’s why I manage every step of the process with precision, communication, and care.

If you’re preparing to sell, I’d be happy to walk you through exactly what the full journey looks like — from the first showing to the moment funds clear in your account.
